Moroccan rapper Lartiste is enjoying a huge success with his hit song "Chocolat." Recorded as a duo with the singer Awa Imani, the song is being played non-stop in the French-speaking world thanks in part to its catchy refrain, cho cho cho chocolat.

In the video, two people are lucky enough to have the song performed at their wedding!
